โฆ Synopsis
From the back cover
Readers who revel in a foolproof murder mystery, who want fast pace, action and wit, and who delightin the Sherlock Holmes legend will find this a superb adventure in suspense.
When a Hollywood studio announces plans to film a Conan Doyle classic, it arouses the interest of a group of Sherlock Holmes fans. Soon, all sorts of things begin to happen--a murder with a disappearing corpse, cryptograms, a couple of cock-eyed adventurers in the best Holmes tradition and all the odd trimmings, including a Watson who's a cop, not a doctor.
"You will enjoy this delightfully farcical narrative, which offers a surprise on nearly every page." - The New York Times
